The branch main has been updated by marius: URL: https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/src/commit/?id=0cdfc338053bc323b3c89f82b287f0fd52da8343 commit 0cdfc338053bc323b3c89f82b287f0fd52da8343 Author: Marius Strobl <marius@FreeBSD.org> AuthorDate: 2021-01-16 15:58:38 +0000 Commit: Marius Strobl <marius@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2021-01-16 22:53:13 +0000 man4: bring back ofw_console.4 and openfirm.4 Back when I wrote openfirm.4, sparc64 was the only architecture to include the corresponding device. However, nowadays all supported architectures will provied this Open Firmware interface, even x86 when built with FDT support. As for ofw_console(4), powerpc actually was the first architecture to ship it but we'll probably not see another consumer in future. This partially reverts 702547720ca01437081fb1b6f9eb281c9541021b and r357794 respectively, adjusting paths and content as appropriate. --- share/man/man4/Makefile | 2 + share/man/man4/man4.powerpc/Makefile | 1 + share/man/man4/man4.powerpc/ofw_console.4 | 111 +++++++++++ share/man/man4/openfirm.4 | 296 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 4 files changed, 410 insertions(+) diff --git a/share/man/man4/Makefile b/share/man/man4/Makefile index b8e63315cb95..abdc1b0f4c4b 100644 --- a/share/man/man4/Makefile +++ b/share/man/man4/Makefile @@ -410,6 +410,7 @@ MAN= aac.4 \ oce.4 \ ocs_fc.4\ ohci.4 \ + openfirm.4 \ orm.4 \ ${_ossl.4} \ ow.4 \ @@ -718,6 +719,7 @@ MLINKS+=netintro.4 net.4 \ netintro.4 networking.4 MLINKS+=${_nfe.4} ${_if_nfe.4} MLINKS+=nge.4 if_nge.4 +MLINKS+=openfirm.4 openfirmware.4 MLINKS+=ow.4 onewire.4 MLINKS+=pccbb.4 cbb.4 MLINKS+=pcm.4 snd.4 \ diff --git a/share/man/man4/man4.powerpc/Makefile b/share/man/man4/man4.powerpc/Makefile index 6cc248c8fcf3..05c5d4012fe8 100644 --- a/share/man/man4/man4.powerpc/Makefile +++ b/share/man/man4/man4.powerpc/Makefile @@ -7,6 +7,7 @@ MAN= adb.4 \ cuda.4 \ dtsec.4 \ llan.4 \ + ofw_console.4 \ pmu.4 \ powermac_nvram.4 \ smu.4 \ diff --git a/share/man/man4/man4.powerpc/ofw_console.4 b/share/man/man4/man4.powerpc/ofw_console.4 new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..eb73235c4970 --- /dev/null +++ b/share/man/man4/man4.powerpc/ofw_console.4 @@ -0,0 +1,111 @@ +.\"- +.\" Copyright (c) 2001 Miodrag Vallat. +.\" Copyright (c) 2005 Marius Strobl <marius@FreeBSD.org> +.\" All rights reserved. +.\" +.\" Redistribution and use in source and binary forms, with or without +.\" modification, are permitted provided that the following conditions +.\" are met: +.\" 1.

/dev/openfirm +device is an interface to the +.Tn Open Firmware +device tree. +This interface is highly stylized. +It uses +.Xr ioctl 2 +calls for all operations. +These calls refer to the nodes in the +.Tn Open Firmware +device tree. +The nodes are represented by package handles, +which are simply integer values describing data areas. +Occasionally a package handle of 0 may be used or returned instead, +as described below. +.Pp +The calls that only take and/or return the package handle of a node +use a pointer to a +.Vt phandle_t +for this purpose. +The others use a pointer to a +.Vt "struct ofiocdesc" +descriptor, +which has the following definition: +.Bd -literal +struct ofiocdesc { + phandle_t of_nodeid; + int of_namelen; + const char *of_name; + int of_buflen; + char *of_buf; +}; +.Ed +.Pp +The +.Va of_nodeid +member is the package handle of the node that is passed in or returned. +Strings are passed in via the +.Va of_name +member of +.Va of_namelen +length. +The maximum accepted length of +.Va of_name +is +.Dv OFIOCMAXNAME . +The +.Va of_buf +member is used to return strings except for the +.Dv OFIOCSET +call where it is also used to pass in a string. +In the latter case the maximum accepted length of +.Va of_buf +is +.Dv OFIOCMAXVALUE . +Generally, +.Va of_buf +works in a value-result fashion. +At entry to the +.Xr ioctl 2 +call, +.Va of_buflen +is expected to reflect the buffer size. +On return, +.Va of_buflen +is updated to reflect the buffer contents. +.Pp +The following +.Xr ioctl 2 +calls are supported: +.Bl -tag -width ".Dv OFIOCGETOPTNODE" +.It Dv OFIOCGETOPTNODE +Uses a +.Vt phandle_t . +Takes nothing and returns the package handle of the +.Pa /options +node. +.It Dv OFIOCGETNEXT +Uses a +.Vt phandle_t . +Takes the package handle of a node and returns the package handle of the next +node in the +.Tn Open Firmware +device tree. +The node following the last node has a package handle of 0. +The node following the node with the package handle of 0 is the first node. +.It Dv OFIOCGETCHILD +Uses a +.Vt phandle_t . +Takes the package handle of a node and returns the package handle of the first +child of that node. +This child may have siblings. +These can be determined by using +.Dv OFIOCGETNEXT . +If the node does not have a child, +a package handle of 0 is returned. +.It Dv OFIOCGET +Uses a +.Vt "struct ofiocdesc" . +Takes the package handle of a node and the name of a property. +Returns the property value and its length. +If no such property is associated with that node, +the length of the value is set to \-1. +If the named property exists but has no value, +the length of the value is set to 0. +.It Dv OFIOCGETPROPLEN +Uses a +.Vt "struct ofiocdesc" . +Takes the package handle of a node and the name of a property. +Returns the length of the property value. +This call is the same as +.Dv OFIOCGET +except that only the length of the property value is returned. +It can be used to determine whether a node has a particular property or whether +a property has a value without the need to provide memory for storing the value. +.It Dv OFIOCSET +Uses a +.Vt "struct ofiocdesc" . +Takes the package handle of a node, +the name of a property and a property value. +Returns the property value and the length that actually have been written. +The +.Tn Open Firmware +may choose to truncate the value if it is too long or write a valid value +instead if the given value is invalid for the particular property. +Therefore the returned value should be checked. +The +.Tn Open Firmware +may also completely refuse to write the given value to the property. +In this case +.Er EINVAL +is returned. +.It Dv OFIOCNEXTPROP +Uses a +.Vt "struct ofiocdesc" . +Takes the package handle of a node and the name of a property. +Returns the name and the length of the next property of the node. +If the property referenced by the given name is the last property of the node, +.Er ENOENT +is returned. +.It Dv OFIOCFINDDEVICE +Uses a +.Vt "struct ofiocdesc" . +Takes the name or alias name of a device node. +Returns package handle of the node. +If no matching node is found, +.Er ENOENT +is returned. +.El +.Sh FILES +.Bl
